All of these RWJF grants supported educational outreach efforts that involved distributing selected "Caucus" programs after broadcast to approximately 200 high schools for classroom use.
The "Caucus" series is currently broadcast to an estimated 9 million homes from two public television affiliates—Thirteen/WNET (PBS) in New York and NJN-Public Television in Trenton, N.J. "Caucus" also is broadcast over several cable stations and can be seen by viewers in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, New York and Pennsylvania.
Based on average weekly Nielsen ratings for the PBS broadcasts of "Caucus" (cable broadcasts are not subject to these ratings), the producers estimate that the series was seen by up to 1 million viewers during the 1997–98 television season. Caucus Educational Corporation's new "One-on-One" series was broadcast five times a week on CN8-Comcast Network and Cablevision to 3.6 million potential viewers in New Jersey, parts of New York State, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
